Hello DavidShortt

As a general rule, you can upgrade or replace all the hardware components on your computer and maintain the license for the operating system Microsoft OEM original software, with the exception of an upgrade or replacement of the motherboard. An upgrade of the motherboard is supposed to lead to a "new personal computer. Software operating system Microsoft OEM cannot be transferred from one computer to the other. Therefore, if the motherboard is updated or replaced for other reasons that a defect was created to a new computer, the original license expires, and we need a new full operating system license (and not an upgrade). This is true even if the computer is covered by Software Assurance or other Volume Licensing programs.

  • HP laptop - 15-r150sa (ENERG: I want to upgrade the processor and the RAM of my laptop HP)

    I have a requirement for a high quality laptop computer.  I want to at least 16 GB of RAM and Intel i7 processor. Can I improve/replace the newly purchased on my laptop i5 to i7 processor and 6 GB to 16 GB RAM?

    Emergency response please.

    The processor is part of the motherboard. To get a faster processor, it requires the replacement of the whole motherboard.

    Processor Intel Core i7-5500U and 2 GB cards separate graphics 795814-501

    Above is the part number. This part is new and rare and can only be in HP. At this moment, they are not available. I did a complete search on the internet and it does not appear in one of the parts houses so likely you will have to wait a few months for the part joining the supply chain. When it doesn't the price will shock you. As at least $300US, maybe more.

    The RAM is available anywhere. Like this:

    http://www.eBay.co.UK/ITM/2x-8gb-16GB-DDR3L-1600-MHz-RAM-memory-HP-mobile-Workstat-Zbook-17-PC3L-12800S-/191493216820?PT=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c95e29a34

    Upgrade memory requires the removal of the motherboard so it would be foolish to do until you are ready to do all the work.

    May I ask why if you need a super-powerful laptop just purchased a kind of average lower of the spectrum? It's always much more expensive try to upgrade a cheap laptop computer than to just buy a high-end establishment at first. It would probably be you will have to return or to sell your laptop and buy a new one with the features you need.

    I have a laptop 214dx CQ60. I want to upgrade the processor in it something else. I read on the Internet it is possible to replace the processor too long you will find the right socket, power, processor etc. Is there a list out there which is compatible with the laptop I have? I was hoping to find a processor that will consider a dual-core to a core2duo machine computer. Thanks for any info you can give me!

    Thank you for your help. I'm looking to an improvement in the operating system memory/too, so that the processor could do the trick. Was probably go Windows 7 64 bit at the same time. Thanks again.

    All I need to know is that can I put RAM and CPU processor without voiding the warranty

    Hey,.

    If you upgrade the CPU, you will cancel the warranty because this upgrade is not supported from Toshiba.
    In addition, I put t understand why you buy a laptop, and then you think of some hardware upgrades. In your case, I'd rather bought a laptop with faster processor and more RAM.

    See also this article from Toshiba:

  • Satellite M40X-189: I want to upgrade the processor?

    Hello

    I have the satellite m40x-189 notebook with Intel Pentium M 730 processor(1.6/2M/533). "I want to improve my CPU with Intel Pentium M780 processor(2.26/2M/533). Is this possible?

    Generally speaking, the situation of CPU upgrade is a little different on laptops. It's not as easy as on the desktop PC.
    The production of temperature and overheating are serious problems.

    But the series of different laptops is shipped with different processors. AFAIK the M40X supports processors:
    Intel Pentium-M Dothan, 1.6GMHz, 1.73GMHz, 1.86 MHz, 2.0GMHz, 2.13GMHz
    and 2.26 MHz.
    Intel Celeron-M Dothan, 1.3GMHz, 1.4GMHz, 1.5 MHz, 1.6GMHz

    The device also supports processors Intel 915 PM/915GM/910GML chipset for system memory controller.

    But you know, nobody's going to give you the guarantee that the laptop will run stable and without any strange behavior.

  • The upgrade of processor and the graph of Compaq Presario cq42-203au

    Hi guys,.

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ42-203AU with AMD processor and graphics. And what I want to ask is, can I upgrade the processor and graphics of my laptop? If it is possible, what is the maximum and graphic compatible processor for my laptop? I thank very you much for your help in advance.

    Hello Netbuckler,

    I understand that you are interested in upgrading the processor and graphics card on your laptop, is that correct? I will try and provide you with information that needed to get there.

    The processor can be improved in this particular notebook. If you go to page 91 in the maintenance manual , it will give you a list of processors and it will show you the steps to do it yourself. I don't know what your current status of security with this laptop, but if you are still covered the upgrade of the processor warranty this I just want you to be aware.

    Now and then when you're dealing with the graphics card it is soldered to the motherboard if you will not be able to update. If you really want to improve the graphics, as you go through the motherboard. There is a list of those on page 81 in the owner's manual as well.

    If I was helpful, or if you want to say thanks to me trying to help, click on the White Star under my name to give me congratulations. I really appreciate it.

    Please answer as soon as possible.

  • Equium P300-190 - Question about upgrading the processor

    Hello

    I just have a question for my CPU PC Toshiba laptop, I have a can of Equium P300-190 full to give model number if necessary the cpu is one supplied with the laptop.

    My question is I want to upgrade the processor but do not know which would be the best option and there are limits with the BIOS, etc. on board.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Probably it is not known to you that upgrading the CPU is not officially supported by the manufacturers of portable.

    The CPU upgrade is a tricky thing... the fact is that the CPU must be supported by chipset and BIOS.
    Where a party would not support the new processor, the unit will not light.

    So even if you use a CPU that is supported by the chipset (Intel GM965) there is a risk that the BIOS could not support the new processor...

    The laptop was equipped with processor Intel Pentium Dual-Core processor T2390 (Merom code name) probably the other CPU Intel Pentium Dual-Core family-owned would be compatible, but to be honest, you won't see a performance improvement...

    So in my opinion it is not worth trying to upgrade the processor...

    In my opinion, you need to replace the HARD drive with an SSD... in that case you will get the performance improvement...

    Hello

    Upgrading the CPU is a bit tricky on laptops and more often than not desirable and is not possible.
    After the CPU overheating upgrade, it would be possible that don t cooling modules are working properly and the laptop.
    Why? Well well, the CPU new and stronger products, more heat and the temperature would be Monte. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS will not correspond with the new CPU and the cooling fans would not correctly work.
    In addition, upgrading CPU will void your warranty! It's very risky!

    Anyway, looks like you certainly want to upgrade the processor?
    So I would check the chipset installed on your laptop.
    Try to know the details of the chipset and Intel page for compatible processors research!
